The distinguished senator died
Edited on Fri Dec-08-06 12:10 AM by SoCalDem
and was met at the Pearly Gates by St.Peter.

St. Peter looked a bit flummoxed, and finally said "Wow! We don't get many politicians up here..Welcome!".

The senator looks around a bit and says "I'm a bit surprised, myself".

St. Peter offers the senator a choice. One day in hell and one day in Heaven, and then he must choose for all eternity. he asks the senator if he wants the "Heaven Day" first, or the "Hell Day".

Since he had taken a quick peek at Heaven, and was truly curious about "the other place", he close Hell for the first day.

The elevator descends and at the bottom, he's greeted by two voluptuous blonde women in bikinis. they escort him around, and immediately he sees all his old previously-departed friends from DC. He plays golf, tennis, drinks champagne, enjoys the all-you-can-eat steak & lobster buffet, and way too soon the day is over.

Up he goes to spend the "heaven day"

Right from the beginning it's boring boring boring.

Everyone's listening to speeches, watching c-span and (gasp!) reading books and newspapers. the day drags on and on. Finally it's over.

St Peter asks if he has made his decision.

He says "Y'know, Heaven is supposed to be grand, but I actually enjoyed my time more in Hell, and I already know many people there, so I think I'm gonna have to choose Hell".

St. Peter informs him that there's no changing his mind after he gets there, and the senator agrees that he understands..and off he goes.

This time, when the doors open, Satan himself is there to greet him.

He has to step over his friends' bodies, there is nothing but fire and brimstone, and screaming & crying. It's a very ghastly scene.

He ask Satan."What's going on here? Yesterday when I was here it was wonderful.. what happened?"

Satan says:



"yesterday was campaign day..election's over, dude..enjoy eternity"..

I heard this on c-span last weekend, and thought it was soooo cute.. had to share for those who missed it..
